It is not effective yet. Microsoft Edge browser will be able to OCR recognize and translate the Chinese characters of the video in the future.
Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Alejandro86 for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com October 21 news, news source Leopeva64 recently tweeted that a new feature has been introduced into the latest version of the Microsoft Edge browser of Canary channel (not yet effective) to OCR identify text content in YouTube videos.
In the latest version of Canary's Edge browser, users hover over the video playback window and see an icon called "translate" in addition to the picture-in-picture option, but it doesn't take effect when clicked.
CTOnews.com also tried to upgrade to the latest version of Canary's Edge browser, and this "translation" icon option was not found on site B or YouTube. It is estimated that Microsoft has only invited a small number of users to participate in the test.
Leopeva64 believes that this translation function is associated with the "translation" sidebar, and users should exhale the sidebar after clicking it in the future, showing the relevant text description in the video.
